    Interesting, I always enjoyed his site the most. I wonder what position he will leverage that much experience into, and with which company?

    I'm guessing it was the reverse here. He was doing what he loved, but the $ offered by apple and the chance to do something new was irresistible. Also, I am not clear on who now owns the site. Still Anand?

    Maybe he'll fix Apple's easily hackable icloud so celebrities won't have to worry about their nude pics being posted online anymore...but he probably won't. It's been broken for 2 years so far...what's 2 more?

    I don't think they will let him fix it. Me thinks the security hole is quasi intentional. Lots and lots of sh_ts & giggles going on at Corp. HQ...

    AnandTech sold to the same parent company that owns Tom's Hardware.
